    6.5 Creedmoor vs 7mm Rem Mag-Recoil

    Does anyone else use a PAST recoil shoulder pad on the range besides me? I use one when I shoot my Tikka T3 Lite in 300WSM without a brake and it makes a world of difference. You might consider the $30 or so for your wife when you're on the range. I did pick up a 6.5CM Hells Canyon Speed last...

    New Mexico Sheep Outfitter Recommendations?

    Get ahold of Bill Lewellan of One on One Adventures. 575-642 8090 http://www.oneononeadventures.com/sheephunts.htm The man knows his sheep! I used a friend of 25+ years as my outfitter when I hunted on White Sands Missile Range (Unit 19) in 2016, but to be honest it was mainly because I wanted...

    Desert Sheep Finally Home!

    After 14 months and a "few" dollars, my 2016 NM sheep is home from Imperial Taxidermy in Santa Fe. To say I'm tickled is an understatement! They had 10 desert sheep in the shop from the past year and I was the only one to get a life-size mount done. Guess a few people are kicking themselves, but...

    Browning Hells Canyon Speed 6.5 CM Magazine

    Hey everyone, I picked up this rifle last summer and absolutely love it! I tried to find an extra magazine for it (Browning #112044607) right after I bought it and everyone showed it was out of stock. I tried again this evening, figuring there may be a better inventory during the off season...

    2016 NM Desert Bighorn

    Hey everyone! Here's the story about the sheep I got in December, 2016. I found out I was drawn for Unit 19, which is the White Sands Missile Range/San Andres NWR. We had to go through the typical government background checks and of course, there was very little info about previous hunts since...
